Offset interposers for large-bottom packages and large-die package-on-package structures

Abstract

An offset interposer includes a land side including land-side ball-grid array (BGA) and a package-on-package (POP) side including a POP-side BGA. The land-side BGA includes two adjacent, spaced-apart land-side pads, and the POP-side BGA includes two adjacent, spaced-apart POP-side pads that are coupled to the respective two land-side BGA pads through the offset interposer. The land-side BGA is configured to interface with a first-level interconnect. The POP-side BGA is configured to interface with a POP substrate. Each of the two land-side pads has a different footprint than the respective two POP-side pads.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A package, comprising:
 an interconnect structure, the interconnect structure having a top side and a bottom side; 
 a first plurality of bumps coupled to the bottom side of the interconnect structure; 
 an electronic device mounted flip-chip fashion upon the top side of the interconnect structure, the electronic device vertically over a portion of the first plurality of bumps; 
 an interposer having a top side and a bottom side, the bottom side of the interposer coupled to the top side of the interconnect structure by a second plurality of bumps, and the second plurality of bumps laterally spaced apart from the electronic device; 
 a substrate over the interposer, the substrate coupled to the top side of the interposer by a third plurality of bumps, the third plurality of bumps having a footprint that does not overlap with a footprint of the second plurality of bumps, and the third plurality of bumps having a pitch larger than a pitch of the second plurality of bumps; and 
 a die wire bonded to the substrate, the die vertically over the electronic device. 
 
     
     
       2. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the interposer has a through hole, and the electronic device is in the through hole of the interposer. 
     
     
       3. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the interposer has an uppermost surface above an uppermost surface of the electronic device. 
     
     
       4. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the interposer has an interposer lateral width, the interconnect structure has an interconnect structure lateral width, the interposer lateral width the same as the interconnect structure lateral width. 
     
     
       5. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the interposer has an interposer lateral width, the substrate has a substrate lateral width, the substrate lateral width less than the interposer lateral width. 
     
     
       6. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the interconnect structure has an interconnect structure lateral width, the substrate has a substrate lateral width, the substrate lateral width less than the interconnect structure lateral width. 
     
     
       7. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the third plurality of bumps is entirely within an inner perimeter of the second plurality of bumps. 
     
     
       8. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the die is a memory die. 
     
     
       9. The package of  claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is a processor. 
     
     
       10. The package of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a foundation substrate coupled to the first plurality of bumps.
